Lipoma

Lipoma is a growth of fatty tissue that slowly develops just under the skin.  Lipoma are soft in touch, usually movable and generally painless. People of any age can develop a lipoma, but rarely develop them. While a lipoma can form on any part of the body, they typically appear on the neck, shoulders, back, abdomen, arms, and thighs. They are classified as benign growths (tumors) of fatty tissue; this means a lipoma is not cancerous and is rarely harmful. The cause of lipoma is unknown. The risk of developing this type of skin lump increases, if you have family history of lipomas. Lipomas are commonly found in adults but can also be found in youngers and children. Lipomatosis is believed to be a hereditary condition in which lipomas are present on the body.
